Become a Certified WARRIOR Instructor
Turn your passion for movement into a career. Join my hands-on certification workshops to master Warrior Rhythm and Warrior Strength, accredited by ACE and NASM.
I am so excited to bring you my WARRIOR Rhythm instructor training. This video gives you a quick look into what the full-day program is all about, from the hands-on practice to the incredible community you'll join. This is for anyone who loves fitness, whether you're a seasoned pro or a beginner looking to start a new journey.
If you've ever thought about turning your love for movement into a career, this is your sign. My WARRIOR Rhythm Instructor Training gives you a globally recognized certification, lets you teach anywhere, and connects you with a supportive community. It's more than a course; it's a new path.
The core of my teaching philosophy is "Come as you are," and this video shows exactly what that means. Every move in WARRIOR Rhythm has both advanced and modified options, ensuring that everyone can participate fully and safely. I will teach you how to coach all fitness levels with confidence.
Leading a WARRIOR Rhythm session for the Lululemon India community was an incredible moment. It shows the power and appeal of this format. When you become a certified instructor, you're joining a movement that's recognized by leading names in the fitness world.
This is one of my favorite moments: celebrating with newly certified WARRIOR Rhythm instructors. My goal isn't just to train you; it's to see you succeed and feel empowered to lead your own classes. This certificate is your first step into a larger, exciting world.
This is the soul of WARRIOR Rhythm. It's a cathartic experience where movement flows with music, pushing your boundaries in a way that feels incredible. In my training, I break down how to master and teach these unique, yoga-ish sequences.
Don't just take my word for it. Hear directly from people who have experienced the WARRIOR formats. Their feedback on the intensity, the flow, and the amazing feeling after a session says it all. This is the impact you'll be able to create.
About this collection
When you walk out of our 8-hour workshop, you won't just have a certificate; you'll have a fully mapped-out lesson plan, choreography notes, and the confidence to lead your first class. We focus on the practical stuff—how to cue, how to modify for different body types, and how to hold space for your students—so you can stop worrying about 'perfect' and start teaching with real impact.
Why get certified with me?
This isn't a lecture-heavy course. It is a full-day, hands-on immersion into the Warrior Rhythm and Warrior Strength formats. Whether you are a fitness pro looking to add a fresh, high-energy format to your roster, or someone who loves movement and wants to start their teaching journey, you are welcome here.
My philosophy is 'Come as you are.' This approach is built into the curriculum—I teach you how to make fitness accessible and fun, not intimidating.
What your certification includes
- Global Recognition: The certification is accredited by ACE and NASM, meaning you can teach these formats anywhere in the world.
- Professional Credits: You earn 0.8 ACE/NASM credits per course (or 1.6 for the dual bundle) to keep your professional licenses active.
- The Toolkit: You get the digital instructor manual, full choreography notes, and access to the specific music mixes so you are ready to hit the floor immediately.
- Ongoing Support: You are not on your own after the workshop. You join our global instructor family, where you can tap into mentorship, get help with marketing your classes, and share ideas with other teachers.
Real-world training
Workshops are hosted at The Studio by Copper + Cloves in Domlur, Bengaluru. We keep groups interactive to ensure you get personal feedback on your form and cueing. We also do a full Master Class during the training so you experience exactly what your future students will feel. If you feel like teaching a full class is overwhelming at first, we walk you through how to start with 30-minute sessions or small group practices to build your confidence one step at a time.
